(idly dreaming of a vampire with AUS / QUI / PRO and what he/she could
do to a vampire backed up by a hand size of 1)
IANLSJ but I would say that if you use Ambulance the action continues
as if unblocked, hence the cardtext on Truth of Blood is no longer
fullfilled and the two cards that the blocking minion's Methuselah
discarded he must now draw back up to his hand size. If he blocks
again then Truth of Blood kicks in again and the blocking minion's
Methuselah must once again discard two cards, not replacing them until
the action ends.

with CHI or OBT you can keep playing the same S:CE + action continues
card (Mirror Image and Shadow Body, respectively).

Ok, that's why IANLSJ.
Another question on the same theme, does the same go for Fleurdumal's
special? Does opponent still play with open hand if Ambulance is used?
Archie
Fleurdumal: "until the end of the resulting combat".
Once that combat is over, the effect ends.
If she's blocked again, a new reduction will be applied in the new "resulting
combat", but it won't be cumulative with the first reduction, since the first
reduction has already ended.
Hmm ok, so if Fleurdemal for some reason became !Brujah and is
blocked, burns 1 blood and then plays Blood Brother Ambush the
opposing Methuselah would have to play with open hand during the
combat with the Blood Brother Ambush, right?
Archie
Yes. Indeed, for the rest of the action, since BBA canceled the combat.
(By the ruling on Fleurdumal that the effect lasts until the end of the action
if there is no resulting combat.)
Except that Mirror Image and Shadow Body cannot be played on bleed
actions, so not too useful with Truth of Blood.

Well, _technically_ they can be _played_. It's just that they won't
continue the action. Which does kind of screw everything right up. :) My
bad...
